[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I can't believe people are actually citing the CDC. The same CDC that decided 3-4 feet of distance was fine because political people wanted it so, and then undecided that, and told us that masks weren't necessary and then that they really were, and then figured out that 15 minutes consecutive vs. cumulative exposure were actually different? Because other areas of the country that aren't actually doing much testing "know" that the currently out of control spread magically stops at school gates? Because other countries that actually lock down businesses and provide social supports for the economic fallout and have universal health care have different numbers that we will never achieve because we have none of those things? Come on.

I'm not saying Gayles is right. He seems awfully conservative. But to claim that "the science" has the definitive answer on schools and "the CDC" is omniscient, when we're only 9 months into this and we have thousands of years of history of "everybody" knowing a scientific principle and then it turning out to be wrong, is absurd. This is a disagreement about risk assessment and probabilities, not "the science." Nobody is certain. Neither side should act like they have The Answer and The Knowledge.[/quote]

Thank you for bringing some actual facts into the discussion.  Now since they don't fit the open schools agenda, they shortly be summarily shouted down, ridiculed and eye-roll-emoji-ed, because they don't fit the false narrative.  [/quote]
